No Homers Club [The Simpsons Club]

Who's your favourite guest star on the show?

U2 in the episode "Trash Of The Titans". I love the scene where Homer ruins their concert to give a message to the audience.

Coming a close second would be Paul and Linda McCartney in "Lisa The Vegetarian". Lisa felt so nice being around other vegetarians and it's such an iconic episode.
 
Glenn Close as Mona Simpson. This kinda what I was hinting at with my comment. She played that role straight. It wasn't and "here is Glenn Close ;)". I didn't even know it was her for a looooong time.

All the baseball players in "Homer at the Bat", just because I like the episode overall.

Kinda in the same vein as Glenn Close, I'd say Dustin Hoffman as Mr. Bergstrom. Only that time I could tell it was him. XD Damn distinctive voice. But, still. He worked really well in the part and it is a great, heartfelt early episode.
 
Discounting people like Jon Lovitz/Albert Brooks/Phil Hartman who did multiple episodes (and multiple characters), my favourite would have to be Meryl Streep playing Jessica Lovejoy in the episode 'Bart's Girlfriend'. I didn't realise it was her playing the role until a few years ago, and she sounds really convincing as a 10-year-old girl without having a background in voice acting. While most of the guest stars before the show turned into a big steaming pile of turd did 'act' when voicing their characters, Streep's turn felt like a real performance. So much better than that Sarah, Plain and Tall!

Wow, you couldn't sound more like one of those crazy Gaga-fans on Twitter if you tried! Are you joining the club, or not, Nicholas?

Anyhoo, since we've exhausted the guest-star topic, howzabout this one:

Favourite non-Simpson family character and why?

I'll Apu because he's the first one to pop in my head, but I don't think he is XD
 
Well, it's good to see that people are taking this seriously! :D

In any event, my favourite is probably Mr Burns. He so deliciously and devilishly evil and the best part of it is he's completely self-aware of how evil he is. His evilness coupled with old-timey jokes about stock-tickers and having the Rolling Stones killed and his ability to be shot by a baby over a lollipop. On Facebook I have him has one of my inspirational people, and that's not an entirely facetious placement! :D
 
It's been over 2 weeks, so I can officially double-post in my last-ditch-CPR attempt to revive this mother. Let's try a simple question: Favourite Simpsons quote?

C'mon, people. Don't disappoint me now! :D

Reason you wish to join this club: The Simpsons is probably my favourite TV show of all time, so why not?

Favourite Simpsons Quote?

Mine would have to be Hans Moleman's: "I was saying boo-urns". That episode had me in tears of laughter all the way through, and then Moleman made me lose it with that line. Brilliant.

Also:

*Preparing to sell Bart's elephant to the ivory dealer*
Homer: Here's the keys!
Dealer: Elephants don't have keys.
Homer: I'll just keep these then...
